Mother Pushes Kids Out Of Burning Home And Locks Herself Inside To Save Them

A passerby walked by the scene of a burning house in Newman Lake, Washington – where he found 2 children who had barely escaped the devastating fire. They were standing outside the door and inside the small home engulfed with flames was their unconscious mother and sister.

WLTX News said that on October 29th around 2 a.m., Angel Fiorini, the mother of three, woke up coughing as black smoke suffocated her lungs. She realized their home was on fire and in that moment, she quickly ran into each room to find her children. She was able to get 2 of her children safely outside, 18-month-old Rosalie and 3-year-old Vinny. Her 7-year-old daughter Gianna was still in the burning house.

When Angel went back inside to find Gianna, her 2 small children kept trying to get into the house as they were worried about their Mom. To ensure they remained safe, she closed the front door and continued her search for her daughter.

Because the door closed, smoke quickly filled the house and blinded Angel’s sight to the doorway. She then used her body as a shield to protect her 7-year-old daughter from the flames. They both laid near the door, unconscious and badly burned.

The passerby saw the smoke and hauled Angel and Gianna out of the house. The two youngest suffered minor injuries.

Gianna had second-degree burns on about 14% of her body. The brave 29-year-old supermom suffered second- and third- degree burns all over her body which required extensive skin grafts.

Angel’s extraordinary act of bravery saved her whole family. She has made a successful recovery and has now been reunited with her children.

The fire had unfortunately taken everything away from the family and friends have set up a variety of donation pages to help Angel and her family get back on their feet.
